Watch: This Glass-Bottomed Sky Train Offers Stunning Views Of The City Below

The air-rail vehicle, driven by new energy, rolled off in southwest China's Chengdu on June 26

A glass-bottomed sky train rolled off production lines in China last week. With glass panelling on three sides, the panda-themed sky train provides passengers with stunning panoramic views of the city below. The air-rail vehicle, driven by new energy, rolled off in southwest China's Chengdu on June 26, reports CGTN.  The train is part of the Dayi Air-rail project, which includes China's first renewable energy-suspension railway demonstration line. According to Global News, the new-energy air-rail refers to suspended rail train driven by lithium battery power pack. It is different from the subway or light rail, which serve as the main public transport modes of the city, in that the air-rail project combines the characteristics of tourist traffic and sightseeing, connecting places with relatively small passenger flow. A video of the sky train, shared by CGTN, has been viewed more than 58,000 times on YouTube, where reactions were largely complimentary.
